Chapter 724: The Bright and Honest Shady Curtain (3/3, Monthly Pass Plus 17/78)

Artificial intelligence for brain-like behavior?

This... At that time, it was also on the cover of Nature, and the popularity on the Internet was very high.

He...

How did he suddenly make a foray into artificial intelligence?

Zeng Wei is the head of the artificial intelligence team of Qingda University, when he heard the news at this time, he showed a look of horror and panic, glanced at the vice president of Qingda next to him, saw that his expression was a little anxious and uneasy, and said cautiously: "Xu Mang... Finally got its hands on us. ”

“...”

The vice principal smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "I guess... I have an opinion on where we stand, but I'm curious about what kind of artificial intelligence he can make as a person who is engaged in theoretical physics. That's it. ”

Not only is it just the curiosity of Qingda, but many people present are also looking forward to it, an expert in theoretical physics, suddenly entered the field of artificial intelligence, which is not an ordinary span, at least separated by several mountains.

After the awards,

Xu Mang was questioned by countless people, who wanted to know too much about the content of Xu Mang's current research, after all, every one of his studies would cause huge waves in the world.

But...

This time, Xu Mang was very conservative about this and did not reveal anything.

...

Back to the magic capital,

Xu Mang started the non-human mode, and in less than 12 days, he wanted to put the time of the 'Xu Man system' in predicting the protein structure into the era of one second, but unfortunately... In the following time, after five days of hard work, there was still no progress.

The news about his entry into the field of artificial intelligence spread all over China, and even began to be reported abroad, causing an uproar, and soon Google's artificial intelligence company DeepMind learned of Xu Mang's news.

"Damn it!"

"This guy actually... It's coming?!" Professor Demis Hassabi had a dark face and an angry look on his face, the previous battle for supremacy on quantum computers had been lost to the point of losing face, and it turned out that this guy had come to the field of artificial intelligence again.

Excuse me...

This is the field you can't make to the top!

As a cutting-edge artificial intelligence company, it has always emphasized the combination of the most advanced technologies of machine learning and systems neuroscience to build powerful general learning algorithms, and so far, DeepMind has achieved good results in business fields such as simulation, e-commerce, and game development.

And in recent years, Google's DeepMind has become a star in the field of artificial intelligence, relying on AlphaFold's algorithm to beat all opponents in the race to predict the structure of proteins by a stunning margin at the end of last year.

Then

A young man walked in with a copy of the BBC newspaper.

"Professor!"

"Xu Mang... He seems to be going to compete with us!" The young man handed the newspaper in front of Damis Hasabi and said solemnly, "He may be our strongest opponent, and we need to be ready to fight back." ”

"I already know. Daimis Hassabi nodded and said calmly, "But... I don't care if there is a competitor, this is a new field, and more people will join in the future, and Xu Mang is just one of them. ”

Words fall,

Damis Hassabi pondered for a moment and said to the young man: "Is the protein structure prediction competition CASP about to start? Last year we were the champions, and this year we will use the latest generation of AlphaFold to participate in the competition, so that others can see how powerful we are in the field of artificial intelligence." ”

"Good!"

The young man nodded, then fell into hesitation, and said cautiously, "Professor... I have something to tell you, Xu Mang... Xu Mang also participated in the CASP competition. ”

"What?"

"He... He also participated?" Damis Hsabi looked at the young man with a frightened expression, although he said that he was not worried about Xu Mang, but he was still very honest in his heart, and he didn't want to meet him anywhere, there was no way... Almost all the world suffers from fear of Xu and the symptoms of fear of Xu Da.

"Hmm!"

"I guess I came here to grab money. The young man smiled bitterly: "I don't know what he's thinking, even if he wins first place, he doesn't want to get a penny." ”

Is it?

Fear... This is not the case.

Damis Hassabi knows a little bit of the inside story, recently the Physical Society and the Materials Association are running a project, I heard that this project is up to a trillion dollar market, if you get the relevant technology, you can almost monopolize the whole world, so that Europe can only obey the United States forever.

And this technology comes from Xu Mang, in the face of a trillion-dollar market and control of the whole of Europe, 1.5 billion dollars seems... It's not a big deal at all.

If he had won first place, he would have to hand over the money.

Of course...

If you cheat, you may not need to pay money.

Damis Hassabi feels that the top management of the United States will definitely engage in all kinds of small actions, and the registration cannot be stopped, but when the questions are drawn, various interventions can be carried out, such as letting Xu Mang draw the most difficult questions, and it will always be the most difficult.

Other... The contestants are the easiest.

Jingle bells!

The landline suddenly rang, and Damith Hassabi glanced at the caller, who turned out to be Professor Matt from the University of Maryland, who was the founder of CASP, and there were less than a few days before the start of the competition. What's the situation?

"Professor Matt?"

"I didn't expect to receive a call from you at this time. Damith al-Hasabi was surprised and said, "I'm afraid you're not looking for me to have a simple chat, right?"

"That's right!"

"Just got a notification... Let you win the championship. Professor Matt smiled wryly, "But... There aren't any bonuses that you should know why, no way... There is a famous international robber who came to America to rob money. ”

“...”

"Xu Mang... Damn!" Damis Hassabi sighed and said helplessly, "What are you going to do to stop him from winning the championship?"

"Title!"

"It's a two-day tournament and he's going to be eliminated on the first day. Professor Matt said: "He will get the most difficult question from the beginning, and then the time will definitely run out, and then he will directly lose, it's as simple as that... In short, I prepared ten world problems for him. ”

"Good!"

"I see!" said Daimis Hassabi, "but I think it's better to have two plans, such as... What if he makes it to the second day and wins unexpectedly?"

"Impossible!"

"This is a global problem, I communicated with the Ivy League universities, and they all thought that Xu Mang's artificial intelligence could not be completed in two hours. Professor Matt said solemnly: "I believe in professional ability!"

Believe?

How many people died at Xu Mang's hands because they believed in themselves.

You can't be sloppy in fighting this kind of person, otherwise... It's a catastrophe that destroys the world!

"Ugh..."

"Whatever you want. Damis Hassabi smiled wryly.

Hang up the phone,

Damis Hassabi sighed, raised his head and glanced at the young man in front of him, and said, "CASP is ready for us to win the championship, in order to prevent Xu Mang from getting 1.5 billion US dollars, but... We don't get a penny, that's an official order from the United States. ”

"What?"

"It's... This... I wonder if they're being too careful?" and the young man said in surprise: "It's okay not to give money, is it necessary to do this?" I think on the contrary, it seems to lack the spirit of fairness, and it is an insult to the game. ”

Fair?

The world has never been fair!

Damis Hasabi said indifferently: "Don't think about fairness so simply, fairness is only based on hegemony, and Xu Mang has restrained us in many ways. ”

...

On this day,

Xu Mang dialed Professor Smith's phone, but there was no way... Ask for protection, after all, I am also a special person, in case I walk on the street and am put down by someone else's sack, this is a tragedy, not to mention... I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet, I used to put on others, in case retribution comes.

"Hello?"

"Professor Smith?" Xu Mang said with a smile, "It's me... Xu Mang!"

"I have caller ID here. When Professor Smith received a call from Xu Mang, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, and asked cautiously, "Is the money spent?"

“...”

"One more point. Xu Mang smiled: "I participated in the CASP, you have to ensure my life, in case I die in the United States, you don't want to get the material database." ”

Professor Smith opened his mouth, but suddenly the words came to his mouth but he couldn't speak, and finally he told the truth to Xu Mang, saying, "Xu Mang... You may be treated unfairly, and this time the winner of the CASP has been decided, and it is Google's DeepMind. ”

Xu Mang: ???

it!

Zhengda Guangming is doing shady?

What's the situation?

Haven't they always advertised themselves as the fairest, most just and open country?

Sure enough, it's a double-standard dog!

"Uh..."

"Professor Smith, what kind of black law is it?" Xu Mang asked curiously, "Violent shady or technical shady?"

"Technical shady. ”

"They will give you the most difficult question from the beginning, and your AI system will not be able to solve it within the specified time, and you will be directly judged if it is overtime. Professor Smith said, "Xu Mang... You've been eliminated from the start. ”

Is it?

Not necessarily!

Xu Mang smiled indifferently: "I'm the person who likes to challenge the impossible the most, so let's put it this way... In this competition, if I draw a problem that takes more than one second in the analysis and prediction of protein structure, you will directly judge me to lose!"

Professor Smith: ???

This...

Is this a choice to surrender?

Or do you want to replicate the legend on the quantum computer?

How can it be!

"Professor Smith. ”

"I hope you will bring the words to the people of the organizers. Xu Mang smiled: "That's right... The day after tomorrow, I will fly to the United States, and remember to take over when the time comes, otherwise... I'm going to be very unhappy, you're going to have to add money again!"
